CorelDRAW X7 includes support for multiple languages, but these languages are accessible only if installed with the application during the initial setup process. Switching languages in CorelDRAW is as simple as adjusting a couple of menu options; however, if the language hasn't yet been installed, you need to walk back through the application's initial setup before the different language options appear. You can add languages to CorelDRAW X7 at any time after installing the application.,
